Detroit 60 series is a good motor. On the other hand the Mercedes has alot of head gasket trouble. There are only 4 bolts holding the head on each cylinder and can cause lots of problems. For a farm truck id go with a cummins follwed by cat, and then a detroit. Cummins is definatly the cheapest engine to work on.
